Setting consumer.request.timeout.ms on REST API

[w...@addimation.com]

How do you set consumer.request.timeout.ms on the REST API server?  I tried  

./bin/kafka-rest-start --consumer.request.timeout.ms=100 

but it didn't work and using --help didn't print anything useful.  In the document on http://docs.confluent.io/1.0/kafka-rest/docs/index.html, I couldn't find any examples of how to set these properties.  I'm sure it's an easy thing to do, but I only see documentation of the options, not how to actually set them.  Thanks for any help.

Hi Wes,

You pass a config file as a command line parameter, much like other Kafka and Confluent Platform scripts:

./bin/kafka-rest-start config/kafka-rest.properties

See that file for a few (commented out) examples of how to override settings. The defaults are setup to work well with a local test configuration, which minimizes typing when you're just testing or getting started. But for pretty much any production setup you'll need at least a few settings changed, most obviously the zookeeper and schema registry URL settings.

Thanks.  I didn't see a file "config/kafka-rest.properties" but I did see "etc/kafka-rest/kafka-rest.properties"
